9600, 19200, 38400,
57600, 115200
Selects serial port

speed must be matched
on the other side. Long

require lower speeds.
Data Bits
7, 8
Data Bits
Parity
None, Even, Odd,
Mark, Space
A parity bit can be sent
with the data bits to
detect some
transmission errors.
Even: parity bit is 0 if the
num of 1's in the data
bits is even. Odd: parity
bit is 0 if num of 1's in
the data bits is odd.
Mark: parity bit is always
1. Space: Parity bit is
always 0. Mark and
Space Parity do not
allow for error
detection. They can be
used as an additional
data bit.
Stop Bits
1, 2
Stop bits indicate the
end of a serial data
packet. (A start bit
indicates the
beginning). The
standard setting is 1
stop bit. Communication
with slow devices may
require more than 1 stop
bit.
